3.6. Testing the new CVS module

Now you should be able to do another test checkout or update using any CVS client, which should now download all the files that you have just imported into CVS. Additionally, you might test your newly imported code by making a change to one of your checked-out source files, saving it, then committing it.

index.html:
<!--this is a test comment at the top of index.html-->

Now commit the change

cvs commit index.html

Your changed version will now be resident in the repository. There are a lot of good CVS documentation and resources for discovering more about the checkout/update/commit cycle and other CVS aspects in the Resources Appendix

You'll also notice that even if you start your interchange server, the change you made did not take effect. The next section will detail the process of tying CVS and Interchange together in a way that this will happen automatically.
